Characterization Of Nano-Structured Oil Palm Ash And Its Influence As Filler In Epoxy Composites

The utilization of oil palm ash, a bio-agricultural waste from oil palm mills was studied by developing it into nano-structured material and as nanofiller/reinforcement on epoxy composites. The raw oil palm ash was subjected to high-energy ball milling for 30 h and was converted into a nano-structur...
